Davido speaks about his early career
Popular Nigerian artist Davido has admitted that having an American passport made it simpler for him to travel abroad.
In an interview with Omega, the American-born artist made this claim and said that his blue passport is worth more than $1 million.
When other members of his band struggle to get visas to travel for concerts abroad, Davido asserted that because of his passport, he is always at an advantage.
The singer of “Unavailable,” nevertheless, expressed his happiness at being a Nigerian.
He stated:
“That part of my life [being born abroad] didn’t come out until I blew up. People thought I live in Nigeria. It was later on in my career that people realised that I did Alabama college and stuff like that.
It wasn’t like I was introduced as an American artist in Nigeria. I’ve been in the streets back home. The only thing is that I could fly anytime I wanted, like go to America anytime I wanted.
Till date, I don’t care how much money you’ve got, that blue passport is worth more than a million Dollars.
For example, we were going to Australia for a tour, to get the structure is so hard because some of my band members were having difficulties in getting the papers just because of their passports. But obviously, it’s kind of easier for me because of the blue passport.”
